Ban hunting with dogs in Northern Ireland

Sadly, Northern Ireland is the only part of the United Kingdom without a ban on hunting with dogs, which includes fox hunting, deer hunting and hare hunting. We are calling for Northern Ireland to get in line with the rest of the UK and ban hunting with dogs.

Hunting with dogs was banned in Scotland in 2002 through the Protection of Wild Mammals Act and in England and Wales in 2005 under the Hunting Act. Northern Ireland is now the only nation within the UK that has not introduced a complete ban on fox and stag hunting.
